Bone and obsidian in Arena mode
« on: June 20, 2011, 07:11:36 am »
Is there any way to enable bone and obsidian gears in Arena mode in .18? Or does it works in later versions?

They are not found in the RAWs (.25) so I don't think so. Maybe someone else knows a solution though.

In .18 I have here, short sword have [CAN_STONE] which I assume is needed for obsidian swords since none of other weapons have it, and only short swords are made from obsidian in vanilla.

For bone gears, it's [BARRED] in armor raws. I have no idea what crossbow have that allow it to be made of bone in vanilla. So I don't see what's preventing them from showing up in arena mode, other than either a bug. Or it's intentionally kept out because of the clutter factor? I see wood items all over the place there.

Availability in the arena is totally different from the normal game. Ugly workaround, but you could make a metal clone of the desired materials.

This, and an even uglier one: you can have the desired items be left by air-drowning sharks as [ITEM_CORPSE]'s.

Yeah, that's a ugly workaround, might look into it after all.

Well, yeah, shark eats everything  :o

Thanks for the suggestions, I'll look into faux-metal next time I need to arena-test such stuff!
